Is it possible that you have an adhesion or particial obstruction where you were reconnected? This is common; however, you would need a medical work-up to find it. My Dr did an xray and said I was NOT obstructed and he sent me home. I knew I was having problems. Finally, I begged my Dr to please (I litterally begged) for my Dr to scope me and see what was going on for himself. Reluctantly, he scheduled to do a flex sigmoidoscopy. Once inside with the scope, he could see the particial obstruction and he sent me to the hospital to have surgery.

I hope this helps you. I am so sorry to hear of your suffering. That proces sounds like a nightmare. I lived on clear soups and jello for years because no one believed me. Remember, Drs are preforming a service. They are hear to serve YOU! You have rights. Keep searching for help and hopfully someone will listen.

Hi,thanks for the response back..it just started recently>someone told me that keeping fiber in me and drinking lots of water helps..Dr.was the best in Boston from what I am told..maybe someone else has had this..it's weird..

Nope,not my Dr. I have not had surgery yet. I see my Dr. next Wed and I have tons of questions for her. I have very severe IBS-C and most probably CI. From reading the boards I am not so sure surgery will help my problem.
